Performance and Drive

Having two engine options can provide the driving experience you want in the new Kia Seltos. The base system offers 147 horsepower. The upgraded engine makes 190 horsepower. The more powerful system can feel more engaging for Jefferson City shoppers. You can upgrade to all-wheel drive for better traction than front-wheel drive. Both are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The new HR-V also offers front- and all-wheel drive. You will only find one engine option in the lineup, offering 158 horsepower. The 2027 HR-V only has a CVT, giving it less responsive shifts than the 2027 Kia Seltos.

Efficiency

Needing to refuel less frequently makes your Knoxville, TN road trips and errands more enjoyable. The 2027 Kia Seltos offers up to 30 MPG combined with front-wheel drive and 28 MPG combined with all-wheel drive. The most powerful engine offers 26 MPG combined, and all-wheel drive is the only option.

Driving the 2027 Honda HR-V does not offer as much fuel efficiency. Front-wheel-drive models offer up to 28 MPG, and all-wheel-drive models offer up to 27 MPG. Worse fuel economy means you might spend more time looking for a gas station than if you chose a new Kia for sale near Bean Station.

Technology

A large touchscreen graces the front of the 2027 Kia Seltos. The 12.3-inch screen controls media, settings, and more in one simple place. The infotainment screen abuts the 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster to provide a modern layout for the front of your new SUV for sale near White Pine.

Choosing the 2027 HR-V will leave you settling for a 9.0-inch screen and a 7.0-inch digital gauge cluster. A less innovative cabin and a smaller screen could make it harder to navigate menus and update your settings.

Safety

New SUVs in Morristown have many driver assist and safety features that make highway driving and busy parking lots easier to navigate. The 2027 Kia Seltos has many features from the start, including Park Distance Warning Sensors (front and rear), Smart Cruise Control 2, a Driver Attention Warning System, and more.

The 2027 Honda HR-V also includes safety features, but it falls behind what the 2027 Seltos has. You won't find parking sensors among its standard features. Needing to be upgraded to match the standard features of the Kia Seltos makes it a less appealing choice for many shoppers.
